The Soul is Not a Single Color


The Soul in Not a Single Color

The soul is not a single color, but a spectrum of emotions.

It is the feeling of freedom, of despair; it is the good, the bad, and the inbetween.

It is the rainbow of our heart but full of a nothingness we cannot comprehend.

 

Red - a burning passion to experience all that life has to give and the anger that clouds our mind and makes our eyes burn with fire.

 

Orange - the fear that grips your heart, taking away your control, and the bravery it takes to stand up to yourself.

 

Yellow - the self assurance that says you deserve more and the insecurity that tells you that you are worth nothing.

 

Green - a kindness towards humanity that wants to give and give, and the naivety that takes everything else away.

 

Blue - a patience that gives you the omnipotence to watch the world around you and the stubbornness that keeps you from moving on and facing the future.

 

Purple - the strength to face a cruel yet beautiful existence and a weakness to the society that destroys you from the inside.

 

Pink - the love we feel towards those closest to us and the heartbreak that leave you aching when they leave.

 

The soul is not a single color, but a mix of hues and shades.

No one soul is truly good or truly bad.

We are all a mix; we are a mix of good and bad, dark and light.

The soul is not a single color and we are not a single choice.

<p>Dope use of a metaphorical comparison between the soul and emotions being colors.</p>
